We are all getting very excited about the upcoming Hanuman Installation, May 29 – June 2.
Everything indicates that it will even be a much larger event than the Temple Inauguration. The energy and evolutionary power will be enormous. People are flying in from India to witness it as well as those from all over the US.
You do not want to miss it! I hope to see you there!
I believe it was Kahlil Gibran that compared a healthy relationship to two strings on a lute. Each vibrates independently to their own tuning, yet they harmonize with one another.
A healthy family is like the strings on a lute… everyone is fully supportive of one another. Yet each lives his own life. Family members do their best to guide each other along a healthy path, yet they do not smother each other.
I do not know how it was accomplished. It is an exquisite blend of unique and often strong personalities that magically crystallized into a wonderful family. I would like to honor Jasumatiben Kantibhai Patel for her very special place in that formula. She passed quite appropriately on Mahashivaratri… at the same time aarthi was being performed at the Sri Somesvara temple here at Mount Soma. She will be greatly missed. She is in a Divine place now, with the Gods.
Those of you who were at the Sri Somesvara inauguration know what a powerful event it was. We will be having a similar event at Mount Soma this summer when we install the granite Hanuman statue we received from India. Hanuman Park will be located just above and to the west of the temple.
Beginning with three to five days of ceremonies, the installation of Sri Hanuman will be on the final day, Monday, June 2nd.
A powerful protector, Hanuman is a disciple of the Sun and an incarnation of Rudra. An ardent devotee of Rama, Hanuman’s greatness lies in his complete mergence with his Lord.
In addition to being a very profound experience, it will also be a lot of fun! Jyotishi Sanjay Rath is planning on making the journey from India to be here, as well as some other familiar faces from the temple inauguration.
Please make your plans to come for the ceremonies and deep group meditation. I look forward to seeing you this summer!
